Shane,
Are you building a 402 ?
Post some more pics as your build progresses.
Time to raise the boost .
What cam are you going with ?
Don't forget about your poor clutch, it will be screaming for mercy.

Where did u get that puppy from?

Shane, this project deserves a full feature article .....good luck with it Bro!

it is a ls3 so stroked it will be 416- 418 ci....close enuff to 427 that the extra cost for the block, heads and intake....over 3,000.00....was not worth it to me. i have ls3 ported heads with manley valves, patriot springs, ti retainers ect on the way as well. boost will be upped to the safe (lol) limit of the d1. as for cam i have not got that coming yet and open for suggestions...hint hint perry lol. fuel system and clutch only thing left besides cam and the fun shall begin. i got the block from speed dicky...don't really matter where you get it it will cost the same. as for the other gm parts gene culley and speed dicky go back and forth on who is the cheapest. the other parts are coming from my company vendors. i will be keeping you guys updated with plenty of pics and info as i go.

Screw GMHTP, that motor looks too SEXY....I'm thinking HUSTLER needs to feature this project!!!
